Lemon Loaf

My favorite flavor ever is Lemon.  Lemon pie, lemon chicken, lemon cookies, lemon bread....everything lemon is great.  I was in the mood to bake and the kids wanted a snack and I have made so many cookies and brownies every week I decided to make them something different and they loved it. This bread is great to make for the summer time and will be a hit no matter where you bring it or leave it.  The sweet hint of lemon in the bread with a lemon glaze will win anyone over.
